In a remarkable display of creativity and dedication, students at Smyrna High School are gearing up for the premiere of their very own feature film, “The Strings Attached.”
What makes this project truly extraordinary is that these high schoolers weren’t just actors in the movie; they took on the roles of directors, editors, and camera operators, showcasing their multifaceted talents both on and off the screen.
Under the guidance of Kyle Dietz, the school’s AV production teacher, this project began to take shape back in August, marking the culmination of months of hard work and collaboration.
Dietz, who has been teaching for four years, expressed pride in his students ability to think outside the box and translate their classroom skills into a full-fledged cinematic production.
“This has been a big project,” Dietz said. “We started back in August, grouping the students into different teams to work on concept development, scriptwriting, and pre-production tasks. It’s been a journey, but seeing the dedication and creativity of these students has been truly inspiring.”
